Spinach (4/10)

List item
Approved

Spinach is added to the list mostly because it is well-known as being high in iron. Truth is that spinach isn’t exceptionally high in iron as once thought. A cup of raw spinach has around 1 mg of iron and cooked spinach has somewhat less. However, spinach and Swiss chard, which is very similar in vitamin and mineral content, are both readily available in most locations. Besides, a list of high-iron foods would somehow not seem complete without including spinach.

All ten of these foods is high in iron, which most people don’t get enough of in their diet. Which are your favorites?
